The Sun Belt will become the final FBS conference to add a conference football title game, sources told ESPN's Brett McMurphy.

The Sun Belt isn't expected to add its championship game until 2018, a source said.

For the next two seasons, the Sun Belt will have 11 members, but the league voted recently not to renew football memberships of Idaho and New Mexico State after they expire after the 2017 season.
